Back from the beach
You may have wondered about our silence. Well, the simple truth is that we were at the beach for the weekend. We drove out to Mamaia, where we ran into friends and spent the days on the beach and at the pool. It was marvelous.
Only Alan destested it all. Sometime last week, or maybe the week before that, my little fearless water rat turned into a water-detesting land dweller. He hated the sea (all those waves, and this water didn't have an ending to it!), he hated the beach (the little shells were poking his feet), he hated the pool ("Don't like it, Daddy, don't like it!). He loved playing around the pool, though, and quickly amassed a group of loyal followers (i.e. little boys of five, six years) who helped him climb on and off the walls. Then he disappeared for a scary couple of minutes and was found outside the pool area, swinging the gates to and fro. But he frequently demanded that we go "home!".
Well. On a brighter note, David just loved all of it. The pool, the sea, the beach. He was busy eating sand and shells and destroying the sand castles I built for him.
I'm glad one of my sons had a great time.
